Khaligraph Jones: Stop using Stivo Simple for quick publicity. Make sure he’s benefiting from all these media interviews 

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Rapper Khaligraph Jones has asked comedian Chipukeezy to monitor how media are interacting with the now-viral artist Stivo Simple.

The artist appeared on his show and become a trending topic. He has been called for dozens of interviews since then and Khaligraph is worried that people just want to use his trendiness to improve their show ratings.

“Naona Sai Kila mtu anataka Kuleta Uyu Kijana Interview kwa Show zao sababu Atawaongezea Ratings, alafu Badala ya kuongelea Mihadarati mnaanza kumuuliza kama Yeye ndio the most handsome man when he clearly stated he is not a comedian but an artist,” said Khaligraph Jones.

Simple has already landed a few jobs including one with Nacada. Chipukeezy has helped him get his footing after his viral interview on the Chipukeezy show.

“@chipukeezy make sure All his Expenses are being catered for by anyone who wants to host him on their TV/ Radio/Blog shows, hawa watu wanapenda kuitana interview wanakutumia alafu wanawacha msanii mdogo Aende Nyumbani Njaa bila ata fare ikome Tafadhali, support them, The Og shall be Respected #mrinternational,” said Jones.

‘English is not a measure of intelligence’- ‘bitter’ Octopizzo continues to throw shade at Khaligraph Jones

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Rapper Octopizzo has really disconnected with his Kenyan market but he’s not really worried because he’s winning abroad.

The rapper took to social media..again, to throw shade at Khaligraph Jones who has been dominating the local market just a week after he(Octopizzo) spoke against him while promoting King Kaka’s album.

The shades against Khaligraph have become common now and it seems they are the only way the rapper can make it to the local headlines.

Shots

Recently, while bragging of how he get’s shows abroad, Octopizzo threw more subliminal shots to Khaligraph who raps in American English and slang.

“Mbona Jay Z huwa harap na Kiswahili. Halafu kwanza hawa marapa Wakenya wanarap na English hakuna mwenye amepiga shows majuu (abroad) kuniliko. Hakuna,” Octoppizo claimed.

He went on to rubbish all artists who do their music in English just to appeal to a bigger fan base.

“English is not a measure of intelligence. I don’t need to rap in English. I rap like I do because am selling me.” He added.

 

Khaligraph Jones: I can’t date a slay queen, these are the basic qualities i’d look for in a woman

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Khaligraph Jones is currently preparing to release his new album but before that, he needed to tackle a few pending issues. After news emerged that the OG has now moved on from the Cashy drama and gotten another woman, the rapper has come out to address the type of woman he wants to be with.

No Slay Queens

Jones, speaking to Adelle Onyango and Shaffie on Kiss FM, shared that slay queens are a NO for him. He then went ahead to share the characteristics of the type of woman he prefers which include discipline and obedience. Probably a few qualities Cashy lacked.

Here’s what he said:

“There are those basic qualities that you’d look for in a woman. For me as the OG, discipline, I’m not about to date a slay queen, so you have to know your limits and just have to be obedient coz I’m out here and I’m talking out of experience. You have to listen to me, I’ve been in the industry I know how these bloggers out here be acting up. So if I tell you not to do this or do that, you better listen to me,” he said.

He also shared that he won’t put his personal life in the public again after what happened to him and Cashy.

“At this point of the knowledge that I have as far as music goes, I ain’t talking about that. I learned my lesson. Going forward you will never know nothing aside from the music that I release, that is as far as it goes,” he explained.

Khaligraph and Cashy

Adding:

“It’s just life. I’m outchea like the OG that I am and I felt like I needed to put that question out there coz with my age, a lot of people tend to think that I’m older and when I tell them I’m about to turn 28, they are like hakuna. They think I’m like 32 or 33. So constantly they be asking me Jones where are your kids at. Personally, I felt like I needed to put that question out there and get people’s opinions and that’s what I did.”

 

Is this the young man Cashy ditched fierce rapper Khaligraph Jones for? (Photos)

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Maybe she was just tired of waiting for his debut album which has taken too long. Maybe, Khaligraph cheated. Perhaps their work schedule got them apart. Or maybe the new catch just has game. Or she was just confused.

Either way, one thing is clear: Cashy and Khaligraph Jones are no more and Kenyans don’t really know what happened. At least not yet.

Is he the father?

Khaligraph and Cashy

Cashy is back in the headlines yet again after sharing photos of her growing baby bump just days after Jones announced they are officially done.

Kenyans have been very eager to see the face behind the man who stole Khaligraph’s gem. Although it hasn’t been confirmed yet, a photo has been doing rounds on social media purporting that a certain guy might be the reason the two ended their relationship.

He might also be the father of the baby though it has not yet been confirmed. Here’s the photo that has been doing rounds:

Is he the dad?

 

DJ Shiti finally buys Range Rover after hustling for days to get the money

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

If you have bumping into comedian DJ Shitty in a matatu while going home then those days might actually be over.

The comedian took to social media to share that he actually bought a Range Rover from Khaligraph Jones. Just recently, Jones acquired the car and has been flossing with the car on IG.

“Congratulations to DJ Shiti as he has managed to raise enough money to buy the Range Rover and it now belongs to him. Good luck and in case you run out of fuel get hold of Eric Omondi for assistance,” Khaligraph congratulated DJ Shiti.

“Congratulations @djshiti_trhk Finally alifika Bei sasa Range ni Yake, Good luck Bro, Mafuta ikiisha kwa barabara dont hesitate to call @ericomondiatakusaidia.” 

Saving for the car

Shitty with Khaligraph Jones

Shitty has been saving for the car for a long time. It’s not yet clear whether the comedian has bought the fuel guzzle that cost not less than 5 million shillings. Earlier, he had asked fans to help him buy the vehicle.

“My fans, please make some contributions so I may even buy the tyre of this Range Rover. Khaligraph is going to sell it to me at a throwaway price. I have given him a downpayment of KES 6000. I even bought him lunch and transferred airtime to his mobile number. I would also like to collaborate with him so your ideas are welcome on the collabo.”

 

 

Khaligraph: I’m about to be 28 years old, I ain’t got no time for Octopizzo’s nonsense 

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

It’s been almost a decade since the dramatic fallout between hip hop gurus Octopizzo and Khaligraph Jones. Back and forth the two have attacked each other in their music, interviews and social media posts.

But now, Khaligraph feels that he’s outgrown the drama and plans to put it in the past officially as he nears his 28th birthday.

“I’m always trying to refrain from such, reason being I’m trying to focus on more constructive things so uhmm Octo is as young talented guy. on some real though he is young talented doing this thing, and I have seen this guy from way back where he had nothing,” Said Jones in a Kiss100 interview.

“Just seeing him right now I feel happy for him, coz we both have the same kind of background. I’m from Kayole and he is from Kibera, and so I let the young brother do his thing, I have nothing bad to say about him. Uhmm we had issues back then, but I’m about to be 28, so I ain’t got time for that right now.”

Khaligraphh

Not my house

Jones also clarified that he hasn’t built a 3 million house like several news sources reported earlier.

“No….I don’t even know, you know it’s funny how ..I just post innocently first of all let me just clarify that the house, is not even my house the house that you saw me in, I was actually doing a show in Kitale, so that’s where I was staying so that ain’t my house for clarification purposes,” he said. 

Shots fired: “Ambieni huyo jamaa aende gas station aongezwe hewa” Khaligraph continues to diss comedian Eric Omondi

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

Khaligraph Jones and comedian Eric Omondi are the recent Kenyan celebrities to start beefing this month after it was reported that the funny man was going around claiming that the Range Rover rapper Khaligraph Jones drives belongs to a certain woman who lives in Hurlingham.

What are brothers for…Tusaidianeni. #OllaAtMeBro

A post shared by Eric Omondi (@ericomondi) on Sep 25, 2017 at 10:53pm PDT

Being the second time Khaligraph Jones is firing the shots at Eric Omondi, he decided to do it differently this time around. Khaligraph Jones shared a new video on his gram where he is seen dancing next to his Range Rover but what caught my attention is the caption.

Well, Khaligraph Jones wrote saying that he is willing to work with Jimmy Gait on a new project dubbed ‘Kwa yesu hakuna sponsor’ and went on to say:

Kwa yesu Hakuna Sponsor New Song Dropping ft Jimmy Gait ???
Ambieni Uyo jamaa ende gas station aongezwe hewa ama aulize ule socialite mwenzake kitu ilimfanyikia last time alijaribu kucheza na OG, Mazishi ni ile ile, last Warning..
#RespectTheOgs

We are not sure how this beef will end but the two don’t seem scared of each other judging from their social media posts.

Beef brewing? Khaligraph Jones and Eric Omondi exchange bitter words on social media

Posted on by Pauline Syombua

A few days ago we did a story highlighting a conversation between Eric Omondi and an unknown friend who were talking about Khaligraph Jones Range Rover and lifestyle which Eric Omondi was seen describing as fake in a leaked conversation making rounds on tabloids.

Well, seems that Khaligraph Jones also happened to come across the story and boy did he get mad. From the screenshots the comedian was seen saying that Khaligraph Jones Range Rover apparently belonged to some old lady who lives in Hurlingham – leaving the audience questioning whether Khaligraph Jone’s lifestyle was legit.

Anyway, to respond to these allegations Khaligraph shared a bitter message on his instagram page where he called Eric Omondi out for hating on him and for spreading fake rumors.

Eric Omondi also went ahead to reply by saying:
